Description

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 is the new edition of Microsoft's highly realistic, graphically advanced flight simulator, the best-selling PC flight simulation game ever. Flight Simulator 2002 is a revolutionary release in the history of the Flight Simulator franchise. It includes real-time, interactive Air Traffic Control, stunning new scenery and visual effects using Microsoft's new "AutoGen" technology and new airplanes - including the Boeing 747-400 and Cessna's highly successful Caravan in both land and amphibious configurations.

Interactive Air Traffic Control (ATC). Ask for takeoff clearance. Get vectors for an instrument approach. Hear other traffic as you fly. ATC adds a new dimension to Flight Simulator.

AutoGen Scenery: As you fly above cities, towns, farmland, and dramatic landscapes, Flight Simulator adds buildings and vegetation appropriate to the terrain below. Office buildings, factories, homes, farmhouses, and trees smoothly blend in at the horizon and fill the entire area with detail that adds unprecedented depth and reality to Flight Simulator.

Crowded Skies: While the auto-generated 3D objects fill in details below, a new artificial intelligence system generates air traffic around and between airports. You're no longer alone in the sky.

Floatplane Flying: With the famous Cessna Caravan utility aircraft on floats, you can take off and land from lakes, rivers, and bays all over the world.

Enhanced Visual Effects: Stunning visual effects that made Combat Flight Simulator 2 so exciting are now in FS. You'll see contrails from high-altitude jets, dramatic lighting effects, and puffs of smoke from tires at touchdown.

Enhanced Virtual Cockpits. If you have a 3D graphics card, you can fly many FS2002 aircraft from a new perspective-3D cockpits with working instruments.

Flight Analysis: Pilots working to improve their skills and enthusiasts looking for new challenges and bragging rights can check the precision of their flying. Maps and graphs show how well you maintained course and altitude.

More than 21,000 airports plus Jeppesen NavData database. Flight Simulator 2002 includes almost every airport in the world, from major international terminals to small-town airstrips. The authoritative, worldwide Jeppesen NavData database includes VORs, NDBs, airways, intersections, and approach waypoints.

Moving map and basic Global Positioning System (GPS). The GPS provides point-to-point navigation with constant position updates on a moving map, plus ground speed, course to the next waypoint, and other information.

Graphical Flight Planner. Plot your route from departure to destination on an interactive map that features automatic or manual routing via great circle or airways.

New Lessons and Challenging Flights. The addition of a floatplane and other aircraft opens many possibilities for engaging activities. Be a bush pilot in Alaska, fly a 747, or earn an instrument rating in the Cessna Skyhawk. We've added lessons and flights that help new users get into FS for the first time and challenge experienced FS pilots.
